The Massey & Bogert Wedding
Dear Ann Marie,
In our first meeting with you to discuss our wedding ceremony, you asked Ken and me to describe what we saw as our own strengths and then to communicate the strengths that we saw and appreciated in one another. "In our first meeting with you to discuss our Wedding Ceremony, you asked Ken and me to reflect on a specific question, which unfolded into a moving moment for both of us. We were able to share with each other and with you the joy that we feel in our relationship. At that meeting, you hinted at a “surprise”, which turned out to be your weaving into the ceremony those personal expressions of our love: our admiration of, respect for, and commitment to one another.
Ken and I are both in our forties and feel that, after a long journey along very different paths, we have found our soul mate. Your crafting a ceremony that reflected the various facets of our relationship, recognizing us both as individuals and as a united couple was, as it should be, the centerpiece of the joyous celebration of our marriage. It was a beautiful ceremony and the threshold into a long life of joy and unity.”

Hello Rev. Ann Marie. When we were faced with changing the ceremony. it became the most stressful point of the planning. After being referred, I realized what a excellent choice! I knew I couldn't go wrong.
You were so inviting to Mike and I. We were so relieved how you took the time to get to know us and our story. You even counseled us since planning the event can bring couples to loose sight of the reason they decided to do this in the first place. When the meeting ended, Mike and I were smiling ear to ear and couldn't stop holding hands that night. Your love and talent for what you've been called to do shines.
The rehearsal went quick and flawless. The ceremony...AMAZING! I never felt so much love in a room. You did a wonderful job because everything you do comes from the heart and it shows. The readings, the vows and the exchange of rings were all picked by Mike and myself, but; the ceremony's atmosphere was very personal and intimate. You made every person in that room feel they played a very special part (of which they did) to our day. It was because of you , Rev Ann Marie, we will never forget why were decided to get married because you reminded us and then sealed the deal. Thank you my dear friend. Words are not enough indeed.

We wanted to express our thanks to you for helping us make out wedding extra specia. Thank you for taking the time to get to know us and giving our ceremony a personal touch.
Thank you, especially, for your idea of having our guests stand around us. It made our wedding so much more intimate and was exactly what we were thinking of when the snow prevented us from being outdoors. We hope you keep in touch!

The Lozano Wedding
We are so blessed that you married us. From our first meeting with you we knew that you would do everything possible to make our wedding ceremony personal, you did that and much more. The poems were lovely, vows so meaningful, hand-fastening and sand ceremonies memorable, blessings comforting, but it was your warmth and caring from the heart that made it special.
We want to thank you for everything that you did to make our day the beautiful day it was and for being who you are, making the world brighter with your presence.

The Bonneau Wedding
To think, we had actually delayed getting married because we couldn’t decide on the right setting. We wanted so much for our wedding to be special as we’d waited so long to be united together. We had first met 25 years ago,
and about 5 years ago had found our way back into each other’s lives. After looking at Ann Marie’s web site and having our first meeting with Ann Marie as a couple, we felt sure that she had an understanding of the nature of our relationship. We chose some readings together and talked about the way our big day would flow. We got married on Valentine’s Day, in our house, in front of a cozy fire and with our closest family around us. Bride and groom lit a Unity candle, and father, daughter, and new step mom performed a sand ceremony, creating ritual and memories which made the day extraordinary and unforgettable.
Ann Marie has a special gift - a sensitivity to the deepest, unspoken needs and desires of others. The laughter was warm, as well as the tears of happiness which flowed that day, as everyone felt that they were a part of the marriage ceremony. Our families complimented Ann Marie on the beautiful service that she shared with us. We will always remember our special day with love in our hearts.

The Kieznoski Wedding
Having known Reverend Ann Marie Acacio for several years through Unity Church in Wilkes-Barre, PA, we knew immediately that
she would be the perfect person to perform our wedding services. Not only did she make the preparation for our wedding an enjoyable experience, we walked away with a better understanding of our own commitment to each other.
And the wedding ceremony itself – a dream come true! Reverend Acacio tailored the ceremony to our needs and I have to say, it couldn’t have been more perfect. Reverend Acacio is understanding, kind, and very patient! Believe me, with 22 people in the wedding party, we put her to the test!!

The Gadsden Wedding
We could not be happier to have chosen Reverend Ann Marie to perform our wedding ceremony. She was so professional and accommodating and was not at all distracted by our large wedding party of 19!
We loved how she took the time out to meet with us and was always there to answer any questions that we had or help us design our ceremony just right.
She really took the time to get to know us as couple and make us feel at ease. It was wonderful how she was able to help us through a rehearsal, if only to calm an anxious bride's nerves! The readings she suggested and incorporated into our ceremony really set the tone and truly exemplified what we wanted our day to be about. Needless to say, our wedding ceremony was absolutely perfect and people constantly compliment us on how beautiful our special day was, all thanks to Reverend Ann Marie!

The Metro Wedding
For our wedding, there could not have been a better choice for officiant than Reverend Ann Marie. Her flexibility fit perfectly with our short planning time frame, her professionalism
cannot be matched and her attention to every detail worked wonderfully with our small wedding.
The warmth of her personality carries through every aspect of her work, from meeting with a couple to performing the actual ceremony. She worked with us every step of the way to make sure everything about our wedding was exactly the way we wanted it. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a minister with a caring heart and years of experience. Extended thanks to her for all she did to complete our perfect day!

The Nelson Wedding
Reverend Ann Marie is great! Our wedding was put together in a couple of months and she was advised of it only a couple of weeks before the date. She had no problem with the minimal time frame and for an anxious bride with many worries, she was very compassionate.
She pays attention to the couple involved and gets a feel for who they are and what they stand for. She took all that into consideration and made a wonderful ceremony to fit us as a couple. Many heartfelt thanks go out to a wonderful lady, who is highly recommended! Thanks for making our day special.

The McGowan Wedding
Chris and I were honored to have Rev. Ann Marie Acacio officiate our wedding because of the positive light that she always shines on her services. Her connection to Spirit and divine intention truly blessed our union.
She recommended readings and song choices for our ceremony that added a special touch. We had many compliments from guests saying that our wedding ceremony was one of the most beautiful ones they had ever attended. We were truly delighted.
